Goals for the Week

 
Once or twice a week we visit a nearby canyon to play in the river and hang out with friends.
 
 
Last Week's Goals:
 
 
Spiritual Health
Finish reading the book of Romans.

Marriage
 Play Skip-Bo with Josiah one evening.

Children
Figure out math lessons for the kids.
After last week's practice run, I realized we need to change up our math.
We're going to try oral math lessons led by me, and we're also going to try Life of Fred math books.
 
Update:  LOVE Life of Fred books so far!

Homemaking
Shampoo the living room carpet.

Hospitality/Friendship
Take "Back to School" pics of my kids and my friends' kids.

Fitness
Jog 1x and bike 20 miles.
Jogged once, biked 10 miles, and went on another bike ride pulling kids.

Minimalist Living
Put all the boys' things in their room in the shed or out of reach.
After watching them procrastinate for 7 hours, refusing to work on their room even though it meant skipping a few meals, to clean up a room that would have taken 10 minutes to clean had they been motivated, I decided they aren't capable of having books, toys, legos, etc. in their room.

Work
Do a practice run of Week #1's Classical Conversations lessons so I'm ready to tutor next week when it starts.
 
 
 
Goals for this week:
Spiritual Health

Finish reading the book of Romans.

 
Marriage
Cook a special dinner and eat in candlelight with Josiah after the kids are in bed.

Children

Work on fall chore schedules.

Homemaking

Pull out my autumn decorations and decorate the house.

Hospitality/Friendship

Mail a few packages off to friends who recently had babies.
Fitness

Jog 1x, do Pilates once, and bike 20 miles.

 
Minimalist Living

De-clutter my sewing stuff and my vase cabinet.

 
Work

Study hand motions for the Timeline Song and history chants.
